Calmly Coping is the go-to podcast for high-achieving professionals who look like they have it all together—but inside, they’re overthinking, self-doubting, and feeling the weight of constant pressure.
I’m Tati Garcia, a licensed therapist and coach specializing in high-functioning anxiety. I help ambitious professionals break free from the cycle of overworking, overthinking, and never feeling good enough, so you can cultivate confidence, balance, and peace—without sacrificing success.
If you struggle with:
✔ Overanalyzing everything and second-guessing yourself
✔ Feeling stuck in busyness but unsure how to slow down
✔ Putting immense pressure on yourself to always do more
✔ Trouble relaxing, switching off, or setting boundaries
✔ Self-doubt, imposter syndrome, and fear of failure
Then you’re in the right place.
Each bite-sized, evidence-based episode is designed to help you manage anxiety, improve focus and performance, communicate more confidently, and build the inner calm you crave.
New episodes every other week. Hit follow and start breaking free from the anxiety-driven cycle today.
